- Adam unboxes Regal Robot's new prop replica of the Holy Grail Chalice from Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade! Part of Regal Robot's Archive Collection, this replica was created using a scan of the original hero prop from the film, hand painted and weathered to give it a distinct terra cotta look with gold leaf finish. A fine piece added to Adam's Indiana Jones prop collection!

"don't drink out of it" oh don't worry, we've all SEEN what happens when you drink out of an imitation grail....
this person gets it.
"He chose...poorly."
😂 I don't want to age 100s of years in 10 seconds either
POP
Very funny !!!!!
Adam should get a bunch of the false grails to surround the real one.
"Grail" IV & V? 😛
Yes, and that anyone drinking those fake grails would choose poorly.
That gave me nightmares as a kid lol
* Bunch of copies of false grails surrounding copy of the real one.
"He chose..... poorly."
Thank you, Adam and the Tested team for sharing what we make at our studio! We love and share your passion for Indy props (and more!)
Now that is a cup of a Maker!!
I've identified at least 3 grails on screen in the film. This replica appears to be based on the True Hero Grail, the first one we see when Indy "chooses wisely" and drinks from in the grail knight's room. We also see it in the close up when Indy touches it hanging in the crevasse. It has an unlevel mouth, and the original now has a Lucasfilm inventory number on the bottom. It was on display at ILM for several years.
The second grail in the film I call Henry's grail. It has different details and paint, but similar in color with a bit more patina. This is the one Indy carries out to Henry, is later picked up by Elsa, and we also see it laying on the stone shelf in the crevasse.
The third one is a stunt grail probably made of hard rubber. It's first seen creating the foaming effect on Henry, probably vinegar poured onto a baking soda wound or similar. The paint is primarily brown instead of the reddish clay of the other 2, and has lost most of its inner gold leafing. This grail is also seen bouncing around the floor and falling into the crevasse after Elsa drops it.
I have seen another grail at Skywalker Ranch, which doesn't seem to match any of the screen used ones. It may be a test, or a duplicate made for display...
As a replica of the movie prop it’s top tier!!!
On another archaeological turn: ever since I first saw the movie I had to go along with the “this is the cup of a carpenter” jazz knowing full well a common 1st century ceramic cup did not have a stem like that! I work with an archaeological pottery specialist on digs in Israel and I showed him the “carpenter’s cup” and he just laughed! HOWEVER, The Last Crusade being a movie and image is everything the art director of course had to come up with something common but still look grail-ish. And they succeeded!
Out of curiosity, what WOULD a "carpenter's cup" from that time look like?
Frankly, if you take pretty much any hollywood movie containing historical objects and show them to expert in the field, it would only produce laugh.
Or cringe.
Like, for instance, hollywood "russians" speaking "russian" with such a crude accent, real russians can barely understand it.
Also, Jesus wasn't a carpenter, he was a handyman. His foster dad was a carpenter.
@@RS-ls7mm True. At this point Jesus was years into religious career and could have a life style totally different from his foster fathers family.
So all that "cup of a carpenter" thing in the movie sounds as quite a stretch.
basically the same but without the tall stem.
They're small but perhaps tall variations of a bowl.
My painting instructor in college used the word "labored" or "over-labored" to describe heavy-handed paint work. When you were fishing for a word that is what popped into my head. Thanks for the video and thanks for reminding me what a great teacher Mr. Petersen was.
Now I'm waiting for the video where Adam replicates the rest of the cups.
The telegram comment is spam. Flag it, as the parent comment owner you have more weight than i do.
Hmmm, just watched (again) The Last Crusade 2 hours ago, and viola-- here you are with this. Just magical. Thanks, Adam.
I just rewatched it last weekend
“Wooden display base” 😂😂😂Its a coaster for the holy grail! Lol
We all have our "holy grail" dreams and I am glad that you found your personal one! Oddly enough, my own "Holy Grail" is the..."Grail Diary". Back when I was hunting and researching, I came across an eBay listing for one called a "master edition." Turns out it was a Tannis Props creation w/ a COA and a hand-numbered 17/25 on the inside back cover. One of the best 2 pieces in the house, am glad I found one!
I spent last week working out at Regal Robot and got to see these up close. They are SUPER cool.
You have chosen wisely. But the Grail cannot pass beyond the great seal. That is the boundary. And the price of immortality.
you said immorality, not immortality
The price of immorality was greedy Elsa falling down the crack!
hahahaha
@@Charok1 I stand corrected. Thanks for letting me know.
Adam Chose Wisely!
I have a photoscan of the exact screen used grail that Indy first picks and drinks from in the knight's chamber. It used to be displayed in one of the hallways at ILM, and I photographed it twice, 2 years apart. It just happened that at some point it was taken out and put back rotated 180° between photos, which gave me a complete scan! I've identified at least 3 grails on screen in the film. I've screen matched all the details of the paint job, and this replica looks very close to that painting style.
Now he’s gonna paint the floor seal on his shop floor 😂
I think a rotating base back lit would be an awesome one day build.
And somehow put a light inside the bowl. Although it does look like it has a sufficient glow.
Tom and the team at RR are legends! When you absolutely positively must have an object of incredible historical significance, accept no substitute!
I always assumed it was supposed to be turned wood since she mentions he was a carpenter as she grabs it.
I was under the same impression
No. It's "That's the cup of a carpenter.", not "a carpenter's cup" as you would, implying it's wood. If you look middle eastern style ceramic type goblets that are period correct, you'll find a resemblance to the overall shape. Whomever made the goblet did some research.
@@aserta But it drops and bounces all over the stone floor without chipping or cracking. It behaves like wood on stone.
I think it should be made of wood.
I wouldn't drink from it.
I always thought it was coil ware ceramic, slightly crudely smoothed, the terracotta color suggesting cheap red clay, 'the cup of a carpenter'. All the gold was supposedly added later by 'the church'. The prop was probably turned wood, and then a mould taken to produce the urethane plastic copies?
Adam! We know you love swords and with your huge collection of Indy props. I’m surprised that you’ve never made the Grail Knight’s Sword from Last Crusades.
But if you have and I missed it. I’d love to see that build. I’d make it myself but I don’t have a way of shaping metal yet :)
Long long long time viewer! Thanks again so much :)
Something I never got; why are there gold splotches on the Grail?
Like, they make such a big deal out of it being "the simple cup of a carpenter" and not one of the fancy gold chalices around it. Why not just have it be a completely plain fired earthenware or carved wooden cup?
I was thinking exactly the same.
@@FrankFurther like... that's a rich affectation, or something the later church might do to a holy relic, but none of the churches that did that stuff were AROUND when the grail was supposedly lost.
And if it had been fully gilded and the gilding had worn away, who was fondling it so much that they wore away the gold leaf?
maybe it was done after it was discovered to be the holy grail so they didnt confuse it with their other cups lol and then wore off through time and changing hands
My theory, the knight did it so it would blend in better with the other cups and the wear and tear are also from him cause he's a Templar Knight who should have died centuries ago, so he's gotta use it to keep living and guarding it.
This is what over-analyzing looks like.
Thank you for sharing this, Adam! You helped me further my collection. I have the jacket from Wested Leather that a friend generously gifted to me a long time ago when Peter Botwright was still at the helm of the company and the default option they offered was to make them bespoke to your measurements for what was seriously a genuinely reasonable price, and now I can have the actual holy grail.
I have to work on the hat, now. I currently have the Disneyland one that was being sold about 20 years ago and to be honest it's of a higher quality than I would expect from a gift shop but I'd love to get something a little closer to the original.
Adam breaks the forth wall with happiness and joie de vivre and it's very refreshing, every time. Thanks for being you good sir.
I have the Magnoli Ceramic Grail that was cast from a production made grail from the movie. Purchased way back on the RPF.
Love the Holy Grail of a Holy Grails. Also, I love seeing the SKX009 still being worn.
Now make about 50 others and force shop visitors to choose the right one
I'd honestly want to mould and cast these so that I could make a proper set to be used. Imagine going to a coffee shop and getting it filled.
“He who is valiant and pure of spirit may find the holy grail in the castle aaaaugh.”
A scan of the original holy grail? That is some find !
Came here to make same comment but you get dibs! (I think that’s the American English term.)
Next up: 3d printed slivers of the True Cross!
I always loved the simple idea that the authentic grail would be quite underwhelming in appearance.
Oh man you’ve got a top 10. That’s so awesome. I hope you’re going to put your grail diary with it!
In the thumbnail, the contrast of the back wall gives the illusion that a beam of light is either coming out, or going into the grail. Nice planning!
the wood display case of a carpenter's wood
haha
love the shopping channel presentation..."choose wisely"
Up next: Adam unboxes the Ark of the Covenant. What's inside will melt your face off!
This guy is my hero since childhood👍👌👌
Dig that Puddle's Pity Party Sticker on the big Band Saw.
Nice. On the one I have which was a 3D print I painted and weathered it, added gold leaf, and as a little extra I placed a small LED in the stem to give it a heavenly glow.
The "Holy Grail" of movie props (for me) has always been the "Thunder Road" spacecraft from the 1985 movie, Explorers.
Sammmeeeeeeee I want that prop so badly
@RobPanico Right? It had absolutely everything that a kid might've used to make a spacecraft, e.g., an old carnival ride, augmented by washing machine, television, and various other salvage yard parts. Yet they took it to the next level by adding safety equipment and "aviation lighting," although it was the "bubble" alone, which actually provided the ability to "explore".
For me, it's the future DeLorean with the Mr Fusion on the flux capacitor....in fact, I'm overdue for my tri-yearly rewatch....
@PureKodiakWild the DeLorean is still available thanks to a team who own the rights and parts, in Texas. You might have to add your own additional time machine parts, Doc, but it'll definitely reach at least 88 MPH stock.
If it isnt already coming down the way, Im sure viewers would like to see all your Indiana Jones prop replicas in total.
After watching this now I want to make a holy grail shaving cup for my shaving brushes and creams
Is it supposed to be ceramic or wood? I assumed wood, as when they drop the grail and knocked it around a couple times, it didn't break. I would think if it was ceramic, it would have shattered. I assumed their intent was a wood cup.
I always thought it was metal...
I assumed wooden too because it was supposed to be the "cup of a carpenter".
Yes, EXACTLY. Carpenters carve wood. Potters mould ceramic.
I had always assumed "cup of a carpenter" was essentially meaning a Working Class cup-- cheap, common, nothing special. But now that I think about it more, it's an ambiguous line. It really does sound like they mean it's wooden. I wonder if woodturning was common in the time of Jesus?
@@kneesturnedvelvet3725 I never considered that the carpenter made the cup--that he just owned it. Plus, the inside of it shines with a gold-like finish. It looks like it has a light inside to make that finish stand out.
yes! ty man. there is just something about that cup!
I am 34 years old. I idolize Indiana Jones, ever since I first saw it when I was 8. I know the history of Jesus and the Grail from being raised catholic. I always thought it was a stoneware or earthen grail with gilding on the inside. Fitting enough, I thought putting gold gilding on the inside was to help keep it clean and showcase your wealth. Being a carpenter, Jesus didn't have much money but he might have spent it on something simple that he would use every day. I DID NOT REALIZE that the entire thing was gilded, and the clay/earthen texture was actually Christ's blood from when he was stabbed through the heart by one of Pilot's soldiers. They collected his blood in this chalice, and it stained the gold with his blood. Amazing!
Or the gold is where the blood fell. Sort of a Midas Touch kinda thing.
I always assumed the gilding was added later.
You should have started the video greeting us with a "YOU CHOSE WISELY"
"You chose........wisely "
I thought the cup of the carpenter would have been wood! I thought it was from the time I first watched the movie... how wrong was I!
Such a simply prop, Last Crusade holds a special place in my heart, used to watch it with my Granda when I was a kid.
A real beauty.
I'm soooo jealous!!!
That's the cup of a carpenter.
Adam's missing the grail tablet to complete to the holy trinity of Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade props
Adam I dare you to glaze it. That should be your new show. “Adam I dare you”
I really wish someone would create a run of accurate illuminated Sankara Stone replicas. It seems like all I can find are the brown opaque versions, or clean transparent yellow with embedded foil and not much else. I wish I knew enough to cast my own in resin, but I don't know think I have enough skill to trial and error enough to get internal fissures and whatnot for me to be truly satisfied.
I’d definitely buy one of those.
You could probably make one from that pinkish rock salt that they make candle holders from and put an LED candle in it.
Well done, mr James Gunn.
Nice! I actually made one myself as a gift a couple of years ago (had the ceramics thrown by an actual potter though), with a storage box (a faux French museum one) that doubled as a display. It should stiil be on the RPF somewhere 😎
Holy Grail!
"Choose wisely." I see what you did there!
That's an absolutely awesome prop replica! Thanks so much for showing and you seemed more pleased with this than the Headpiece to the Staff of Ra you just showed us. 😅
For me it's The Hat.. that defines the Vibe of Indiana Jones
You should probably make a dial of the destiny reprica. Will be the best for a long time
I'd figure out some kind of coating that is safe to actually drink out of it!
That's The Cup of a Carpenter !!!
Can’t wait for the full sized ark of the covenant replica
Cool!
Adam, build a replica of the Ark. That would be totally cool.
he has defiantly has chosen wisely
I wish tested used their strength of knowing who’s is the best for so many of these and we could buy these thru tested for our own collections, but I understand how hard it would be at scale with so many different manufacturers
Love the indiana jones videos!
Disney is also selling a replica of this, the headpiece of the staff of ra, the sankara stone, the crystal skull, and the fertility idol at disneyland
The grail is 50 bucks and its rather nice
Nah, it's a POS.
I was worried about the potential price, but I'm pleasantly surprised. It's not cheap, but it's hand-decorated and 1:1 scale with the original (unlike their Golden Idol from Raiders).
Wow, you chose wisely!!
Interesting thing, The Holy Grail is a unique object. It is a very essence of the thing. So, probably, is the prop used in the movie.
And here we see a copy number 9.
Just got myself one! Thanks!!!
Wonder if it'd be safe to drink out of? (Whoops, Adam added a note NOT to do that. *lol*)
That thing is calling out for a box
NICE SKX ADAM
"The holy grail is the holy grail of treasure hunting"
1:21 I've got to abruptly shut up and gasp a moment...
It crossed the seal!
The cup of a King
Always assumed the cup of a carpenter would be made of wood!
A carpenter would know better than anyone that it takes too long to make a cup out of wood and it would just end up being inferior to a ceramic one
Aww... It's not food safe???
I should be able to pour water in it and at least have it turn to wine, right? 😉
Lovely piece! Cheers!
"The cup of a carpenter" always bugged me; it was a catered affair. "The cup of an innkeeper's bulk order for the dining rooms", would be more accurate. AND add on that one of the apostles had to have stolen it from the innkeeper so that it didn't end up cleaned and back on the shelf with the rest of the drinking vessels for the upstairs dining room.
I think adam needs to make one he can drink out of now... :D
*Grail falls from shelf into a deep hole in the ground.*
Me holding his hand: "Adam... Let it go."
Adam: "Please get off my property before I call the police."
You chose… wisely 😊
That's the authentication plaque of a carpenter.
You have chosen wisely.
In the movie isn't there a brief glimpse of the nut holding the cup to the stem?
“that looks like the cup of a carpenter.”
I always thought it was supposed to be made from wood, not clay. Looked like it to me in the movie too, but i guess i was wrong.
Same here, the cup of a carpenter is surely made of wood right? It always looked that way n the movie to me as well
The inside was shiny in the movie...
For Christmas I got my brother a $30 version of this (looks almost the exact same lol) along with a Grail Diary
Makes me wwant to make a usable one! I'm a potter, but I don't throw well enough to make one of those easily
You are the bomb Adam😝, blowing up that cement truck made me love forever. In 1981, a cement truck tried to take me out forever, I died 3 times that day back then. Then you, Jamie and the team killed one. It was GLORIOUS!
My grail is That Gun from Blade Runner.
May he who illuminated this, illuminate me.
I always thought the cup of a carpenter referred to the Grail being made of wood, not ceramic. A Carpenter would carve cups and bowls. Just a thought.
You can think that but the original prop is quite obviously made of clay, lol
I've heard somewhere the old text was mis-translated and was actually "stone cutter" rather than "carpenter".
@@LunarEclipsism1 I'm sure it is.
It would take forever to carve a cup and end up being worse than a ceramic one
@@calumryan6328 While turning a cup or bowl is doable, it's just cheaper and better to use glazed ceramic.
Nice video sir
3:36 Please choose wisely🤭
Hello Adam❤ thanks for keep doing so valuable content since so long. I've grown watching MBs and I'm so happy that I found Tested because I really missed the show, and your lightning energy of savage wisdom haha thanks for that, and a curious thing, actually, the Saint grail is the son of Jesus, there is an actuall object that he used, wich is a vessell with letters that translated reads " Christ the magician" I'll send a link to a photo of it and a little background maybe,
